7 Sports Themed Wedding Ideas
by DJ Mike Seaquist, Owner/DJ Something To Celebrate Professional DJ/MC Service

I put my thinking cap on for some fun and sporty ideas for you to incorporate into your sports themed wedding reception or event. Feel free to use or modify any of these ideas. If you are inspired to create your own, please share them on my Something To Celebrate DJ Service page or the comment section below this blog. All of the following items for purchase are easy to find online. Game on!






1. Team Cufflinks (Licensed Merchandise)

Your man or the groomsmen can rock their team in a subtle and stylish way.








2. Popcorn Machine

Popcorn makes a great appetizer before dinner or as a late night snack. The aroma of popcorn alone will remind your guest of the game. Place a personalized label with your favorite team or your names and your wedding date to customize the popcorn bags.











3. Trivia Games



Trivia games are great to entertain your guests during dinner. They are fun with or without prizes. The correct answers can be rewarded by you and your mate kissing as an alternative to the clinging on the glasses. You can get creative with the gifts like giving away the table centerpieces, gift bags, a bag of peanuts or candy.

Buzztime Trivia

Rent or buy a trivia game just like at your favorite waterin’ hole while you’re out with your buds.





Do-It-Yourself Trivia (Bride and Groom Trivia)

Just provide a list of 10-15 random questions and answers about you and your future hubby for your DJ to ask your guests on the microphone. They can be all about you, your life, your interests, favorite sports teams or players, your pets or special moments in your life. It works like a game show and it's tons of fun.

4. Fun With Foam (Hands & Wavers)

Foam Hands get the party rockin’! Personalize them with your name or custom phrases like "I fist pumped with Jane & Mark!". Start a wave or a chant on your way to the dance floor with these personalized foam hands.

You can order a batch just for fun or peronslize them with you names and wedding date as a keepsake. If your guests want to see you kiss, then they need to make some noise and wave you on with foam wavers. These are also good fun and the dance floor.












5. It’s seven o clock and it’s time for Take Me Out To the Ball Game. Get the whole gang to sing along with this American classic music lead by your DJ.



6. Introduction Ideas


a. Concert style lighting packages are available by most entertainment companies and DJs to create a big entrance. This is a service that is available through Something To Celebrate DJ Service!


b.






b. You’re the main event so, why not have a moving spot light on you and your hubbie?

c. Burst through a big paper banner with your personalized name monogram or favorite team logo just like the professional players. This is a real simple do-it-yourself/craft project.


7. Chant for a kiss.

Never mind the clinking of dishes. Instead, make your guests work to get you two to kiss. Game day usually has chants of“defense”, “charge” , “let’s go” and similar phrases. Capture the same live game experience at your reception. You can have your DJ cue up the trumpet sound for everyone to shout "charge!" Or get both sides of the room competing to see who can shout the loudest to get you to kiss or to receive a free gift like a team T-Shirt or a personalized T-shirt with your names and wedding date.
